Antioch,
CA...Darrell Hughes II grabbed the victory in the 25 lap Northern All
Stars A Modified Main Event Saturday night at Antioch Speedway. The
third generation racer was coming off of a strong second place finish in
a big race at Southern Oregon Speedway, and this was his first visit of
the season to Antioch. Hughes had to earn this one as he held off the
challenges of four time champion Troy Foulger in the Bill Bowers owned
Modified. Trent Wentworth had another strong showing with a third place
finish ahead of title contender Raymond Lindeman. Past Hanford and

ahead of Wentworth, while five time champion Scott Busby won his heat in
front of point leader Carl Berendsen II, who was debuting a new car.

Trevor
Clymens continues to gain ground on the point lead following his third
20 lap B Modified feature win. Clymens is making up for missing a race,
and he is currently the hottest driver in the division. He also won
his heat race ahead rookie Shane DeVolder. Clymens drove a good race to
win the Main Event as he took the lead with five laps to go. "I must
say, it was the most fun I have had in a long time, " Trevor admitted.
"Best door to door racing so far thanks to K.C. Keller."

The
win was even more gratifying to Clymens considering his car had some
damage, "We started the night with a hard hit in Turn 1 at the start of
the heat race, " Clymens explained. "It broke the left front spindle
and ripped the upper shock mount off the chassis. Drove the wheels off
of it to take the win. We started the main in 4th with no front shock.
Still, we made it to the winner's circle for win #3 and my first big
check. Huge thank you to everyone that kept the car on the track last
night and sponsors that keep it at the track every week."

Shane
DeVolder matched his career best effort with a second finish ahead of point leader Al Johnson, double division racer Danny Jones and Walter Harper. K.C.
Keller won the other heat ahead of Johnson.
